Naval Observatory Selects NovAtel’s GPS Anti-Jam Technology

The U.S. Naval Observatory (USNO) has selected NovAtel’s GPS anti-jam technology (GAJT) for controlled reception pattern antenna (CRPA) capability at Defense Department Information Network (DoDIN) sites, the company said.

The U.S. Navy has ordered more than 600 NovAtel GAJT antennas, which work with civil and military receivers, the company said.

The U.S. Navy has ordered more than 600 NovAtel GAJT antennas, which work with civil and military receivers, the company said.

GAJT is a null-forming antenna system, ensuring that satellite signals, which are necessary to compute position and time, are always available, NovAtel said. The company said the technology protects GPS-based navigation and precise timing receivers from intentional jamming and accidental interference.

DoDIN is a military network used for sensitive voice, data, video, and bandwidth services.
